God is fair

God is fair because He never gave all of us money
God is fair because He never made all our lives the same
God is fair because He usually does not come down and intervene
Unless by a strong invitation
God is fair because He never walks in our lives without knocking first
God is fair because He lets us suffer
God is fair because He allows others to be rich
God is fair because He allows us to complain for as long as we wish
God is fair because He never gave all of us the same abilities
God is fair because He blessed others with perfect families
God is fair because He gave others troublesome families
God is fair because He has allowed others to live in pain
God is fair because He never insulted us by meddling in our lives without our permission
God is fair because He thinks we can when we think we can't
God is fair because He allows tragedy because He believes in us
God is fair because He believes that we can
God is fair because He won't insult us with easy lives with nothing to solve
Nothing to overcome
Nothing to learn
God is fair because He has given us everything we need to triumph in any situation
He has given the ability to access peace to the poor and to the rich
He has given the ability to be joyful to the suffering and to the complacent
He has given us the ability to choose, to believe
He has given us the ability to choose life or to choose death
And each moment in life presents us with those magnificent opportunities
Such opportunities remind us that we indeed have been given power
Too many times we throw our toys acting powerless
Snubbing these daily privileges that assist us to live
To truly live a full life that lacks nothing
Because we each have been given everything
The guy in Australia and the child in Iran
The woman in Africa and the man in Alaska
God is fair
